Families Love Rabbi Lawrence's Expertise and Compassion

Louis G. | Brooklyn, NY

"I can't over emphasize how courteous, sensitive, and professional R' Lawrence is not only with the milah, but with crafting the ceremony that's right for each family... Our pediatrician later remarked after examining our son that his circumcision was one of the best she's ever seen."

"Excellent mohel... He made us feel very comfortable and explained everything thoroughly. Leading up to ceremony, the ceremony itself, and aftercare were seamless transitions. The ceremony was beautiful, and he explained everything to the audience in English after the Hebrew. We are also both physicians, and Rabbi Lawrence answered all of our questions and made us feel at ease."

May baby Yonah Avraham enter a life filled with Torah, Jewish family building and good deeds!

"Rabbi Lawrence was wonderful throughout the entire bris experience! Cannot thank him enough for making us and our son comfortable start to finish." - Sarah E

"I could not recommend Rabbi Lawrence more. Not only did the bris went fantastically well, but I am an anxious first time mom in a multicultural wedding, and Rabbi Lawrence made everyone feel safe and welcomed. He took the time to walk us through all the steps beforehand, answer all our (many, many) questions by having a late night lengthy video-call with us before we hired him.
His thoughtfulness and attention to details during the ceremony in including sephardic blessings and songs were really appreciated as well. But most importantly, his presence and reactivity, no matter the time of day/night, during the follow-up care made us feel supported throughout the entire process. I would go with him again in a heartbeat." - Margot A

"We are so grateful to Rabbi Lawrence for the wonderful experience he provided at our son’s bris. He was incredibly thorough and took the time to answer all of our questions, which gave us so much peace of mind leading up to the day. He was kind, flexible, and created a beautiful ceremony that our family and friends are still talking about. It was a truly meaningful and memorable day thanks to him. We would absolutely recommend him!"- Eliza F.

"Rabbi Lawrence was absolutely amazing. He explained everything so thoroughly ahead of time and during the bris. He was so kind to my whole family involved and brilliant with my children. His aftercare instructions are so easy to understand and he followed up. Would give a 10 out of 10!" - Lauren G.

"We feel so incredibly grateful to Rabbi Lawrence for the beautiful Brit Milah ceremony he performed for our son. This is our second child, but our first boy, and we were naturally very nervous leading up to this special moment. Rabbi Lawrence was absolutely incredible, calm, kind, and professional in every way. He took the time before and after the ceremony to walk us through each step, answer all our questions, and make us feel completely at ease.

The ceremony itself was so meaningful and beautifully done. He was so gentle and quick with our baby, and his presence brought such a sense of peace and joy to the entire experience. That day will forever be marked in our memories. We are beyond thankful to him for making it such a special and unforgettable day." - Stephanie L.

"Rabbi Lawrence did our son’s Bris. He was courteous, communicative, accommodating, and did a beautiful ceremony. Most important, the procedure itself was quick and clean. My son barely made a peep. He provided follow up care as well." - Roman G.

"So grateful for the beautiful bris. He went above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome and included. Truly a wonderful person. Thank you!" -Thalia R.

✨ Yesterday we welcomed baby Yaakov Amir into the Jewish people! ✨
He’s the third boy in his family — and, with tremendous gratitude, the third bris I’ve had the privilege to perform for them!

It’s been amazing to watch this beautiful family grow over the past five years. Big mazel tov to Emily and Brandon Hedvat on the birth of their third son, and amazing two older brothers (who had to be bribed with M&Ms to take this picture!) 💙

May we continue to celebrate many more wonderful occasions together marking the expansion family and people. 🙌✡️

"My wife and I had an excellent experience with Rabbi Lawrence! The ceremony was very meaningful and it drew the crowd in. He throughly explained the aftercare instructions and was available for any follow up questions." - Jordana B

✨ Mazal tov to Arthur — Avram Yitzchak ben Devora Rivkah! ✨

I had the privilege of leading a beautiful ceremony for Arthur, son of Danielle, one of the Principals who lovingly serves our community at the Ramaz Lower School. Surrounded by her loving friends and family, it was a true honor to share in the joy and to have Rabbi Joshua Lookstein give Arthur his Hebrew name.

Danielle shared:
“Rabbi Lawrence led the most beautiful Bris for my baby boy. He made everyone feel welcome and comfortable by warmly explaining each step of the ceremony, translating each Hebrew blessing, and inviting my friends and family to sing along. Rabbi Lawrence was especially thoughtful in designing a ceremony to honor me as a single mom by choice. He was super thorough in teaching me the aftercare instructions and left me feeling secure and confident in my role in my son’s healing!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I was also so touched that Danielle’s best friend reached out to me via email afterward and wrote: “It’s heartening to know that so many families are met with such care and respect during these meaningful moments, as they bring their baby boys into the world.”

It was a joy and honor to accompany Danielle and her family through this sacred milestone. 💙

Mazel Tov to baby Shaul Ben Devorah! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dora—this amazing single mom by choice, with her supportive mother, sisters, and father—brought the whole family together to welcome the first baby boy in the family in quite some time. 💙

Here’s what she shared:

“Rabbi Lawrence was phenomenal at every stage of the ceremony. He made sure everyone—from observant Jews to non-Jews attending their first event—could understand and feel included. Guests are still talking about how moving it was, even weeks later. His aftercare instructions and quick responses gave me so much confidence as a first-time single mom. I can’t recommend him more highly!”

Mazel Tov again to this powerhouse family! 🕊️
